Correction: Billeaud et al. “Effects on Fatty Acid Metabolism of a New Powdered Human Milk Fortifier Containing Medium-Chain Triacylglycerols and Docosahexaenoic Acid in Preterm Infants” Nutrients 2018, 10, 690

The authors wish to make a correction to the published version of their paper [1]. While replying to a Letter to the Editor [2], we re-examined our results and realized that an erroneous version of Table 4 had been accidentally incorporated into the paper. During the manuscript review process, we were asked to reorder the table columns, include the standard deviations, and include all of the p values. Due to the substantial nature of these edits, many errors were accidentally introduced into this table. We sincerely apologize for this unfortunate error and regret any subsequent confusion. A corrected version of Table 4 is below.

Table 4 (Corrected).

Fatty acid profile (g/100 g of fatty acids) of total plasma phospholipids in preterm infants, receiving human milk fortified with a control (cHMF) or with a new human milk fortifier (nHMF) before and after 21 days of treatment. Estimates of the treatment effect nHMF/cHMF (difference) and the two-sided p-values are given for each fatty acid analyzed in the different lipid compartments.
